By now, most people are probably sick of Christmas music. For two months solid, we've been bombarded with sickly-sweet Mariah Carey and Michael Bublé songs.

Then there's Joe Kohlhofer.

He's an Austrian DJ who recently barricaded himself inside a radio studio and proceeded to play "Last Christmas" by Wham! over and over again. Twenty-four times to be exact. 

The radio station, Antenne Kärnten, was quickly flooded with phone calls from listeners begging Kohlhofer to stop. When Kohlhofer's four-year-old daughter called in, he finally obliged. 

If you haven't heard it enough this year, here's Wham! with "Last Christmas."
